Please note: This is not a Raspberry Pi and will not run software made for the Raspberry Pi without additional steps!
LATEST SOFTWARE SUPPORT: Libre Computer provides the latest Ubuntu 23.04 and 22.04 LTS along with Debian 12/Raspbian 11 support with hardware-accelerated video playback and 3D graphics. Upstream software stack featuring the latest Linux 6.x with open source graphics and video libraries. Boards images features standardized bootloaders with UEFI support and behaves similar to a standard computer.
HIGH PERFORMANCE DESIGN: Quad 64-bit 1.4GHz ARM Cortex-A53 Processors, 4K Ultra HD ARM Mali-450 GPU, 2GB of High Bandwidth DDR4, 4K 60FPS High Dynamic Range Display Engine for H.265 HEVC, H.264 AVC, VP9 Hardware Decoding and 1080P 60FPS H.264 Harware Encoding, Up to 40% faster than Raspberry Pi 3.
UNMATCHED IO PERFORMANCE: Equipped with superfast Gigabit Ethernet and lightning speed 5Gbps USB 3, Renegade will power through mixed workloads unlike any sub $50 SBC can dream of. Turn it into a NAS, Kubernetes cluster, file server, wire speed encrypted router/VPN, and more! The performance and possibilities are endless.
HARDWARE EXTENSIBILITY: 40 Pin header enables hardware re-use by maintaining RPi compatible alternate pin functions like SPI, I2C, PWM, UART, and GPIO. Additional design features include ultra high speed (UHS) Micro SD card support, onboard IR, ADC header, eMMC module expansion connector, and more. Form-factor compatible for easy migration from Raspberry Pi 3 designs. See libretech-wiring-tool for more.
OPEN SOFTWARE STANDARD: Libre Computer platforms run standard ARMv8 (64-bit) code from all major Linux distributions. Pre-compiled open source bootloaders are provided to strap any distribution, Buildroot, or Yocto images for rapid design and deployment. This platform runs standard Linux distribution kernels and an optimized Linux tree is available on GitHub.
RASPBIAN COMPATIBILITY: Software made for Raspberry Pi is not compatible out of the box. Libre Computer provides the libretech-raspbian-portability tool on GitHub to convert existing Raspbian images to standard EFI images so that they can run on Libre Computer boards. Pre-converted Raspbian images are also available. Non-standard software libraries for interfacing with hardware will not work and will need to be updated.
NO ONBOARD WIFI: External USB WiFi/Bluetooth dongles (not included but available in kits) perform faster and with less interference than onboard WiFi/Bluetooth. Libre Computer boards do not feature onboard RF emitters for improved regulatory compliance. Bundles are available with external USB WiFi.
SUPPORT OPEN-SOURCE: Libre Computer is a major sponsor of software contributions to upstream Linux and U-Boot including support for adopted Allwinner, Amlogic, and Rockchip SoCs. For technical support, please use hub.libre.computer.
